Also he is a player who seldom bs serious trouble with the umpires hd never has any trouble with the anager or the other players on the am.

In going to the Giants Zimmerman returns to the city of his nativity. He was born in New York on February 10, 1886, and learned his baseball on the sand lots of the Bronx. He played with the Bronx Athletics and other semi-professional teams here. In 1907 he developed so well as second baseman of the 1907 Wilkes- barre team of the New York league that he was purchased in mid season by President Murphy. He joined the Chicago team in December and was used as a substitute. What few times he W called upon he did so well, however, that Manager Chance became of the opinion that he would in time develop into a star outfielder and baseman.
